Cyclists fighting

The first fight I saw between two cyclists was pretty funny. I don't know if it was because of the cleets, but it seemed like they couldn't balance themselves right. And it was mainly jersey pulling and hits in the head that were blindly thrown. Also, I don't think we can forget Carlos Barredo vs Rui Costa at the Tour.

Theoretically, I wanna see what you people think when we put two cyclists up against each other.

I'll start.

Andre Greipel vs Thor Hushovd

Hinault v lemond ('86)
Jelle Nijdam v the peleton (jelle would win)
Vanderaden v Kelly (ultimate hard men at P-R)
 
I fought one of Vino's teammates...

I fought one of Vino's Kazakh teammates at the finish of a tough, windy stage in the Vuelta a Chile. It was caught on tape, reported around the country, scored a draw, was the catalyst for our getting arrested, hauled off to the police station, booted from the race, fined 200 Swiss francs each and made to apologize to the UCI commissaire just like FL had to apologize to HV.

Seriously.

My cyclingnews.com diary from that race is here, I think...

What if your fight was with Vino instead of his teammate? Vino did some time in the service no?

All able bodied males in Soviet Union did time in service.
